| | OBSIDIAN
24.5x23.8 mm
18.42 carats
1.25/ct
23.00 The bands visible in this stone are probably caused by the obsidian flowing during formation. They cause some really interesting optical effects in the stone. |
IOLITE
23.6x10.1mm
5.73 carats
8/ct
46.00This carving is well cut and nearly eyeclean. The design potential with this piece is almost limitless. | |
| | Sugilite
33x10mm
21.47 carats
3/ct
64.50 This is another of my three most favorite stones in stock. The pattern on it looks like a snake skin. Really neat. |
Mawsitsit
33.5x14.8 mm
18.66 carats
5/ct
93.50 This is another gemstone that is only found in one location worldwide, Burma. The material is similar in composition to imperial jade. The green and black patterns are very beautiful. | |
| | Hexagonite
20.2x17.7 mm
12.17 carats
3/ct
36.50 This is chemically identical to the chrome tremolite that I have listed on the cabachon page. The only difference is that this is colored purple/pink by manganese and it is not quite as rare as the chrome material. This is also only found in Balmat, New York. |
Koroit Opal
33.5x15.2 mm
9.51 carats
6/ct
57.00 The patterns in this opal are very interesting. There is also a small amount of precious opal in the piece that adds a nice amount of color to the earth tones. Great design potential. | |
| | Quartz, Raspberry
18.3x16.1 mm
15.64 carats
3/ct
78.20 This is a rare gem material from Mexico. Very little of it has been found since the 1960's. The color is due to fibrous red inclusions, probably hematite, that cause a slight chatoyancy in the stone. |
Morrisonite Jasper
33x15.1 mm
13.59 carats
24This is a very nice jasper from Oregon. The color and pattern are very pleasing. | |
